Buddha Trixie
Not many middle school bands make it out of middle school and those that do are rarely any good. Buddha Trixie proves this wrong; they made it out of their middle school cover band and have grown exponentially as artists. In the early days of their band they found inspiration in the classic rock they were covering, but now after years of growth they find that the "song writing, tones, live presentation, and general demeanor" of Tame Impala is particularly inspirational.
Buddha Trixie was formed when guitarist Andrew Harris' family built a sound proof room in their garage, which was obviously an ideal location to jam. As teenagers Dennis Moon and Daniel Cole spent hours playing with Harris. After roughly seven years of jamming it occurred to them that they should record some music, release it and maybe take music a bit more seriously. In college the trio met Kenzo Mann and he began playing with them. Mann brings an edge to the Buddha Trixie having came from a more punk musical background.
The genre that Buddha Trixie plays can be described as "indie psych garage rock", but truthfully changes depending on the song. A new genre may arise with their upcoming single. The single called "Stay" will be on all streaming services on November 16. Until then you can listen to their music on any major streaming service.
The name Buddha Trixie is a juxtaposition; the idea of something as ethereal as Buddha in the same phrase as what Vox and drummer, Daniel Cole, imagines a "superficial LA sorority girl named Trixie"; this was not thought of when they named their band. The name was taken from a gamertag they band saw when playing Call of Duty. In retrospect the name is amazing for more reasons that it just sounds cool.
Buddha Trixie is playing a release show at SOMA in their hometown of San Diego on November 16. Then on December 14 they will be playing at the Golden Hour festival at The Glasshouse in Pomona, CA. You can follow their Instagram @buddhatrixie.
